A Resorcinol Formaldehyde Adhesive capable of curing at room temperature and providing strong, durable, waterproof bonds. Comes in two parts, a liquid resin (part A) and a powered catalyst (part B). the liquid resin is an alcohol-water solution of a partially condensed resorcinol-formaldehyde resin containing a suitable reinforcing cellulosic filler. The hardener is a tan powder formulated from paraformaldehyde and a suitable cellulosic filler.

Produces a cured glue line which is resistant to fresh water or salt water, most acids and organic solvents, and lubricating oils and greases. Being thermoset, the bond is resistant to elevated temps. and conversely, no loss in bond strength occurs at temperatures as low as -40°F. These features make it advantageous for use as a general marine and aircraft use. It provides strong bonds between many wood and non-wood surfaces. These include treated woods, many plastics, natural and synthetic rubber, primed metal, leather, textiles, paper and fiber boards.

I received this 3 days early..so that was nice....BUT...the hardener container only had 1/4 to 1/3 of the powder and the plastic jar/lid wasnt tight the outside of the 2 containers was coated with the hardener powder...not happy with this..

what are the mixing ratios?
It is a 5 to 1 mix ratio by weight.
When this dries, is it brownish in color?
Per the tech data sheet, it does not specify which color it dries. However, it does mention that Part B Hardener is tan in color.
Does the pint kit make a pint of glue? Or is each can a pint? Thanks, Bill
Part A contains the described amount, example a pint, but after adding Part B, the kit yeilds a little more than described amount. In short this is a two part adhesive, and is mixed 5 to 1, and part A contains a pint, quart, etc.., but when mixed with part B you have 1/5 more usable material to glue parts with.
Do you have the tech data sheet for this Cascophen? What is the mixing life?
We have added the Tech Data and Instructions PDF to the "Documents" tab of this email. The mixing life is included in the tech data sheet.
What is the approximately coverage in square foot for a quart? Regarding Cascophen. Thanks.
